File:Forces on sails for three points of sail.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Original file ‎(720 × 960 pixels, file size: 208 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

Summary

Description
Boat A is close hauled. Boat B is on a beam reach. Boat C is on a broad reach.

VT = True wind speed VB = Boat speed VA = Apparent wind speed FT = Force on sail tangential to sail cord (lift component) FR = Driving force component FLAT = Lateral component

Note that as the boat sails further from the wind, the Apparent wind becomes smaller and the heeling moment becomes less. Note also that the boat speed is highest on the beam reach.
